Supercharged 16V Hybrid

[quasimofo]

I will look into an effective way to do that, we ran a small coolant reservoir from DangerZone with alcohol attatched to a washer pump an a boost sensing switch on the Merkur, I wonder if the same setup would work with the fact the boost is a bit more linear with the supercharger?

I think that it would be better to grab a high mileage 2.4l from 96 stratus/caravan complete for a couple hundred ($200), throw in SRT rods/pistons/rings/bearings ($300), bolt on a 5-spd from a dakota ($350) and run twin mitsu's you can probly get for $10 each on this site and run a harness from an 89 turbo ($50) with big injectors ($150) and a calibration from Cindy (($150) with twin SRT intercoolers ($200).

This should be bolt on except the custom exhaust. Use the rest of the money for BEER

that would be a cool setup

[ednutcracker]

Turbo still too peaky for what our intentions are. I AM building another 16V engine, a 2.5L turbo engine, but it is going to be for an extra special project after the TR7 is done. The Dakota trans is useless to me, but I do have a bellhousing from one that will be used. The guy who sets up my rear axles showed me two 2.2L NA Dakota trans with the input shafts destroyed from normal use... A T5 will be fine.

yeah i definatly agree SC is the way to go for auto x

Well the Dakota bellhousing will be here monday for the first rounds fo fitment, I am actually adapting the TR7 trans to the Dak bell instead of the T5. Less money in driveshaft and trans crossmember fabrication. Once the setup is complete and the mounts/manifold are finalized the actual build starts.

Which bellhousing are you using? The old style one on the left or the later style one on the right?

The one I have is an old style.

What cams are you planning on running? If you wanted to you could go to neons.org and fine a nice set of used magnum head cams, or even crane 12's or 14's for rather cheap. Or even still, if the head is slightly newer, get a set of cams from a 1995 neon, they have a slightly more aggressive grind, and slight overlap.

magnum camS? magnum is SOHC

[invujerry]

Thats right, I have a SOHC, thats what I'm thinking about.

So how did all of this come along anyway?
